Configuring System and Network Settings
System settings appears to be a tab designed to ensure data transmission parameters configuration. Default values and range of values for each parameter are indicated in table below.
| Parameter | Description | Default value | Value options | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Data slice formation period | Data Slices periodicity registration in the log | 3600 sec (once an hour) | 60 – 86400 sec | |
| Disable sporadic data transmission | Disables data transmission initiated by the Data Logger. The data archive is transmitted only on request from the server |
Sporadic data transmission enabled | Enabled/ Disabled |

Enable SIM card activity control |
The option works only, if in the Active SIM card selection parameter Auto is set. Enabling the option to monitor modem activity on SIM cards. On an inactive SIM, a periodic connection to the server will be initiated in order to prevent SIM card disconnecting for non-use. DTU will establish the connection from this card after the end of the period specified in the Maximum SIM card inactivity period line. If the device does not establish the connection after the end of the period specified in the Maximum SIM card inactivity period, the event "The period of no connection on SIMX exceeded" will be generated, and then device will repeat connection attempts in accordance with the parameter Number of repeated connections after inactivity |
